“Support via Chat” (Online Class / Web Conference Portal Site: Part 3)

Online Class / Web Conference Portal Site @ the University of Tokyo | utelecon is a one-stop website to help students and faculty/staff members at the University of Tokyo collect information on online classes and web conferences.

Today we would like to introduce “Support via Chat” to you. It replies to various questions such as, “I can’t enter the virtual classroom,” or “I don’t know how to use the system.” Click here for the description of “Support via Chat.”

Access “Online Class / Web Conference Portal Site @ the University of Tokyo | utelecon,” and you will find a window with a Japanese sentence (「チャットサポートで質問できます」) in the lower right corner.

 

 

A chatbot will make an automated response to your questions and put you through to a human operator (student staff called “Common Supporter”) as necessary.

Keep choosing the right item from the options that come up in the menu, and you will hopefully find an answer to your question. In case you cannot find an item that suits your question or trouble, you will be put through to a human operator. (Business Hours (Operator): 8:30 AM–6:35 PM on weekdays (Mon–Fri))

Please feel free to use this service when you have any kind of trouble or questions with online classes and web conferences.
